Fifth Third Holdings Funding, LLC (the “Depositor”) proposes to cause Fifth Third Auto Trust 2023-1 to issue $276,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 5.618% Auto Loan Asset Backed Class A-1 Notes (the “Class A-1 Notes”), $393,480,000 aggregate principal amount of 5.80% Auto Loan Asset Backed Class A-2-A Notes (the “Class A-2-A Notes”), $226,320,000 aggregate principal amount of SOFR Rate + 0.53% Auto Loan Asset Backed Class A-2-B Notes (the “Class A-2-B Notes” and together with the Class A-2-A Notes, the “Class A-2 Notes”), $580,200,000 aggregate principal amount of 5.53% Auto Loan Asset Backed Class A-3 Notes (the “Class A-3 Notes”) and $102,960,000 aggregate principal amount of 5.52% Auto Loan Asset Backed Class A-4 Notes (the “Class A-4 Notes,” and together with the Class A-1 Notes, the Class A-2 Notes and the Class A-3 Notes, the “Notes”). The Depositor proposes to sell a portion of the Class A-1 Notes, Class A-2-A Notes, Class A-2-B Notes, Class A-3 Notes and Class A-4 Notes in the amounts set forth on Schedule I to the several underwriters set forth on Schedule I (each, an “Underwriter” and collectively, the “Underwriters”), for whom you are acting as representative (the “Representative”). The Depositor intends to retain an amount equal to at least 5% of the initial principal amount of each class of Notes, pursuant to the requirements of the final rules contained in Regulation RR, 17 C.F.R. §246.1, et seq. (the “Credit Risk Retention Rules”), implementing the credit risk retention requirements of Section 15G of the Exchange Act. The remaining Notes that are sold to the Underwriters are hereinafter referred to as the “Underwritten Notes”.

The Notes will be issued pursuant to an Indenture, to be dated on or about August 23, 2023 (as amended, supplemented or modified from time to time, the “Indenture”), between Fifth Third Auto Trust 2023-1 (the “Issuer”) and Wilmington Trust, National Association, a national banking association, as indenture trustee (in such capacity, the “Indenture Trustee”). The Notes will be secured by the assets of the Issuer. The assets of the Issuer include, among other things, motor vehicle retail installment sale contracts and/or installment loans secured by a combination of new and used automobiles, light-duty trucks, vans and other motor vehicles (the “Receivables”) and certain related rights. The Receivables will be sold to the Issuer by the Depositor and will be serviced for the Issuer by Fifth Third Bank, National Association, a national banking association (the “Bank”), as servicer (in such capacity, the “Servicer”). The Issuer will provide for the review of the Receivables for compliance with the representations and warranties made about them in certain circumstances under an Asset Representations Review Agreement, to be dated on or about August 23, 2023 (the “Asset Representations Review Agreement”), among the Issuer, the Servicer, and Xxxxxxx Fixed Income Services LLC, as asset representations reviewer (the “Asset Representations Reviewer”).

Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in Appendix A to the Sale Agreement, to be dated on or about August 23, 2023 (as amended, supplemented or modified from time to time, the “Sale Agreement”), between the Issuer and the Depositor. Pursuant to Rule 15c6-1(d) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), the Underwriters, the Depositor, and the Bank hereby agree that the “Closing Date” shall be on or about August 23, 2023, 10 a.m., New York City time (or at such other place and time on the same or other date as shall be agreed to in writing by the Representative and the Depositor).

The Depositor has prepared and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) in accordance with the provisions of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder (collectively, the “Securities Act”), a shelf registration statement on Form SF-3 (having the registration number 333-267774), including a form of prospectus, relating to the Notes. The registration statement as amended has been declared effective by the Commission not more than three years prior to the Closing Date or, the Depositor has prepared and filed (before the expiration of such three year period) with the Commission in accordance with the provisions of the Securities Act, a new shelf registration statement on Form SF-3 and such new registration statement includes unsold securities covered by the earlier registration statement, which such unsold securities may continue to be offered and sold until the earlier of the effective date of the new registration statement or 180 days after the third anniversary of the initial effective date of the prior registration statement, as permitted pursuant to paragraph (a)(5) of Rule 415 of the Securities Act. If any post-effective amendment has been filed with respect thereto, prior to the execution and delivery of this Underwriting Agreement (this “Agreement”), the most recent such amendment is effective upon filing with the Commission pursuant to Rule 462 of the Securities Act or has been declared effective by the Commission. Such registration statement, as amended at the time of effectiveness, including all material incorporated by reference therein and including all information (if any) deemed to be part of the registration statement at the time of effectiveness pursuant to Rule 430D under the Securities Act, is referred to in this Agreement as the “Registration Statement.” The Depositor proposes to file with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act (“Rule 424(b)”) a final prospectus (the “Final Prospectus”) relating to the Notes and the method of distribution thereof. The Final Prospectus, together with all amendments and supplements thereto and all annexes, schedules and exhibits and documents incorporated by reference therein, are hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Prospectus.”

Prior to 4:30 p.m. New York City time on August 15, 2023 (i.e., the date and time of the first Contract of Sale (as defined below) for the Underwritten Notes (the “Time of Sale”) was entered into as designated by the Representative), the Depositor had prepared (i) the preliminary prospectus dated August 10, 2023 (the “Preliminary Prospectus”), (ii) the Free Writing Prospectus dated August 10, 2023 relating to the ratings on the Notes (the “Ratings Free Writing Prospectus”), and (iii) the road show presentation, dated August 2023 (the “Road Show”) (collectively, the “Time of Sale Information”). Any reference in this Agreement to the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus, and the Prospectus will be deemed to refer to and include any exhibits thereto and any documents incorporated by reference therein, as of the effective date of the Registration Statement or the date of such Preliminary Prospectus or Prospectus, as the case may be.

If, subsequent to the Time of Sale and prior to the Closing Date, such Time of Sale Information included an untrue statement of material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading and the Underwriters terminate their old Contracts of Sale (within the meaning of Rule 159 under the Securities Act) and enter into new Contracts of Sale with investors in the Underwritten Notes, then the “Time of Sale Information” will refer to the Preliminary Prospectus or Free Writing Prospectus approved by the Depositor and the Representative that corrects such material misstatements or omissions (a “Corrected Prospectus”) and “Time of Sale” will refer to the time and date on which such new Contracts of Sale were entered into.

Pursuant to this Agreement, and subject to the terms hereof, the Depositor agrees to sell to each Underwriter, the respective principal amount of each class of Underwritten Notes set forth opposite the name of such Underwriter on Schedule I.

Each Underwriter agrees that (i) if the Prospectus is not delivered with the confirmation in reliance on Rule 172 under the Securities Act, it will include in every confirmation sent out by such Underwriter the notice required by Rule 173 under the Securities Act informing the investor that the sale was made pursuant to the Registration Statement and that the investor may request a copy of the Prospectus from such Underwriter, (ii) if a paper copy of the Prospectus is requested by a person who receives a confirmation, such Underwriter shall deliver a printed or paper copy of such Prospectus, and (iii) if an electronic copy of the Prospectus is delivered by an Underwriter for any purpose, such copy shall be the same electronic file containing the Prospectus in the identical form transmitted electronically to such Underwriter by or on behalf of the Depositor specifically for use by such Underwriter pursuant to this Section 4(f); for example, if the Prospectus is delivered to an Underwriter by or on behalf of the Depositor in a single electronic file in .pdf format, then such Underwriter will deliver the electronic copy of the Prospectus in the same single electronic file in .pdf format. Each Underwriter further agrees that if it delivers to an investor the Prospectus in .pdf format, upon such Underwriter’s receipt of a request from the investor within the period for which delivery of the Prospectus is required, such Underwriter will promptly deliver or cause to be delivered to the investor, without charge to the investor, a paper copy of the Prospectus.

(g)	Prior to the Closing Date, the Representative shall notify the Bank and the Depositor of (i) the date on which each of the Preliminary Prospectus, the Ratings Free Writing Prospectus and the Road Show is first used and (ii) the Time of Sale to which such Time of Sale Information relates.

(h)

Each Underwriter represents and agrees (i) that it did not enter into any Contract of Sale for any Underwritten Notes prior to the Time of Sale and (ii) that it will, at any time that such Underwriter is acting as an “underwriter” (as defined in Section 2(a)(11) of the Securities Act) with respect to the Underwritten Notes, deliver to each investor to whom Underwritten Notes are sold by it during the period prior to the filing of the Prospectus (as notified to the Underwriters by the Depositor), prior to the applicable time of any such Contract of Sale with respect to such investor, the Preliminary Prospectus and the Ratings Free Writing Prospectus.

(i)

If the Depositor, the Bank or an Underwriter determines or becomes aware that any “written communication” (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act) (including without limitation the Preliminary Prospectus or the Ratings Free Writing Prospectus) or oral statement (when considered in conjunction with all information conveyed at the time of the “contract of sale” within the meaning of Rule 159 under the Securities Act and all Commission guidance relating to such rule (the “Contract of Sale”)) made or prepared by the Depositor or such Underwriter contains an untrue statement of material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary to make the statements, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading at the time that a Contract of Sale was entered into, either the Depositor or such Underwriter may prepare corrective information, with notice to the other party and, if applicable, the other Underwriters, and such Underwriter shall deliver such information in a manner reasonably acceptable to both parties, to any person with whom a Contract of Sale was entered into based on such written communication or oral statement, and such information shall provide any such person with the following:

(i) adequate disclosure of the contractual arrangement;

(ii) adequate disclosure of the person’s rights under the existing Contract of Sale at the time termination is sought;

(iii) adequate disclosure of the new information that is necessary to correct the misstatements or omissions in the information given at the time of the original Contract of Sale; and

(iv) a meaningful ability to elect to terminate or not terminate the prior Contract of Sale and to elect to enter into or not enter into a new Contract of Sale.

(j)	Each Underwriter, severally and not jointly, represents, warrants and agrees that it has not obtained any Third-Party Diligence Report (it being understood that the Third-Party Diligence Report of the Accounting Firm specified in Section 2(a)(xii), has been obtained by the Bank or the Depositor).

SECTION 5. Covenants of the Depositor. The Depositor (and, with respect to subsections (i), (j), (k), (l) and (m) below, the Bank) covenants and agrees with the Underwriters that:

(a)

If not already effective, the Depositor will use its best efforts to cause the Registration Statement, and any amendment thereto, to become effective. If the Registration Statement has become or becomes effective pursuant to Rule 430D, or filing of the Prospectus is otherwise required under Rule 424(b), the Depositor will file the Prospectus, properly completed, and any supplement thereto, with the Commission pursuant to and in accordance with the applicable rules and regulations of the Commission within the time period prescribed. The Depositor will file with the Commission any Free Writing Prospectus delivered to investors in accordance with Section 11 hereof as the Depositor is required to file under the Securities Act, and will do so within the applicable period of time required under the Securities Act and the rules and regulations thereunder. The Depositor will advise you promptly of any such filing pursuant to Rule 424(b) or deemed effective pursuant to Rule 462.

(b)

The Depositor will advise you promptly of: (i) any proposal to amend or supplement the Registration Statement as filed, or the Preliminary Prospectus, Ratings Free Writing Prospectus or the Prospectus, and will not effect such amendment or supplement without first furnishing to you a copy of each such proposed amendment or supplement and obtaining your consent, which consent will not unreasonably be withheld, (ii) any request by the Commission for any amendment of or supplement to the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus, the Ratings Free Writing Prospectus or the Prospectus or for any additional information, (iii) the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, or of any amendment or supplement thereto or to the Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus, and (iv) the issuance by the Commission or, if the Depositor has knowledge thereof, by any authority administering any state securities or blue sky laws of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or the institution or threat of any proceeding for that purpose, and the Depositor will use its best efforts to prevent the issuance of any such stop order and to obtain as soon as possible the lifting of any issued stop order; provided, however, that no such advice shall be necessary for Exchange Act reports filed by the Depositor in the ordinary course that contain opinions, the Transaction Documents, monthly distribution reports, annual reports and suspension of duty to report notices.

(c)

If, during the period in which the Prospectus is required by federal securities law or regulation to be delivered in connection with sales by any Underwriter or dealer, any event occurs as a result of which the Prospectus or the Registration Statement, as then amended or supplemented, would include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, or if it is necessary at any time to amend or supplement the Prospectus or the Registration Statement, as applicable, to comply with the Securities Act, the Depositor (in compliance with subsections (a) and (b), above) shall promptly notify the Representative of such untrue statement or omission and the Depositor shall promptly prepare and file, or cause to be prepared and filed, with the Commission an amendment or supplement that will correct such statement or omission or effect such compliance. Any such filing shall not operate as a waiver or limitation of any rights of the Underwriters hereunder.

(d)

The Depositor will make (or will cause the Issuer to make) generally available to the Noteholders (the sole Noteholders being the applicable clearing agency in the case of Book- Entry Notes (as defined in Appendix A to the Servicing Agreement)), in each case as soon as practicable, a statement which will satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act (including Rule 158 under the Securities Act) with respect to the Underwritten Notes.

(e)

The Depositor will deliver to the Underwriters, without charge, copies of the Preliminary Prospectus, the Ratings Free Writing Prospectus, the Prospectus and all amendments and supplements to such documents, in each case as soon as available and in such quantities and to such recipients as any Underwriter shall reasonably request.

(f)

The Depositor will arrange to qualify the Underwritten Notes for offer and sale under the securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions as you reasonably shall request, and will maintain all such qualifications for so long as required for the distribution of the Underwritten Notes and, thereafter, to the extent required by such jurisdictions; provided, that in connection therewith the Depositor and the Bank shall not be required to qualify to do business in any jurisdiction where it is not now so qualified or to take any action which would subject it to general or unlimited service of process in any jurisdiction where it is not now so subject.

(g)

From the date hereof until the retirement of the Underwritten Notes, or until none of the Underwriters maintains a secondary market in the Underwritten Notes, whichever occurs first, the Depositor will deliver to each of the Underwriters, through the Representative, upon request, the annual statement of compliance and any annual independent certified public accountants’ report furnished to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to the Servicing Agreement, promptly after such statements and reports are furnished to the Indenture Trustee; provided, that the Depositor shall not be obligated to deliver any such annual statement of compliance or report to the Underwriters, if such document is timely filed with the Commission under the Exchange Act.

(h)

So long as any of the Underwritten Notes are outstanding or until none of the Underwriters maintains a secondary market in the Underwritten Notes, whichever occurs first, the Depositor will deliver to each of the Underwriters, through the Representative all documents distributed to Noteholders, as the Underwriters reasonably may request.

(i)

On or before the Closing Date, the Bank shall cause its computer records relating to the Receivables to be marked to show the Issuer’s ownership of the Receivables, and from and after the Closing Date neither the Depositor nor the Bank shall take any action inconsistent with the Issuer’s ownership of the Receivables other than as permitted by the Transaction Documents.

(j)

To the extent, if any, that any of the ratings assigned to the Underwritten Notes by any of the rating agencies that initially rate the Underwritten Notes are conditional upon the furnishing of documents or the taking of any other actions by the Depositor or the Bank, as the case may be, the relevant party shall furnish, or cause to be furnished, such documents and take any such other actions as promptly as possible.

(k)

From the date hereof until the Closing Date, none of the Depositor, the Bank or any trust, including the Issuer, originated, directly or indirectly, by the Depositor or the Bank will offer to sell or sell anywhere any securities similar to the Notes that are collateralized by (directly or indirectly), or evidence an ownership interest in, motor vehicle installment loans or retail installment sale contracts without the prior written consent of each of the Underwriters.

(l)	The Bank shall comply with the representation made by it to each Rating Agency pursuant to paragraphs (a)(3)(iii)(A) through (a)(3)(iii)(E) of Rule 17g-5.

(m)

In connection with the Fifth Third Auto Trust 2023-1 transaction, the Bank or (to the extent permitted by the Credit Risk Retention Rules) one or more of its “majority-owned affiliates” (as defined in the Credit Risk Retention Rules) will comply with all requirements imposed upon the “sponsor of a securitization transaction” by the Credit Risk Retention Rule for so long as those requirements are applicable, including retaining the Retained Interest in accordance with the Credit Risk Retention Rules, without any impermissible hedging, transfer or financing of the Retained Interest. The Bank is and will be solely responsible for compliance with the disclosure requirements of the Credit Risk Retention Rules, including the contents of all such disclosures, ensuring that the required pre-sale disclosures are contained in the Preliminary Prospectus, and ensuring that any required post-closing disclosures are provided to investors in a timely and an appropriate method that does not require any involvement of the Underwriters.

SECTION 6. Payment of Expenses. Except as otherwise agreed in writing by the Depositor and the Representative, the Depositor will pay all expenses (including legal fees and disbursements) incident to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including: (a) the printing and filing of the Registration Statement, the Ratings Free Writing Prospectus, the Preliminary Prospectus and the Prospectus, and each amendment or supplement thereto, and delivery of copies thereof to the Underwriters, (b) the preparation of this Agreement, (c) the preparation, issuance and delivery of the Underwritten Notes to the Underwriters (or any appointed

clearing organizations), (d) the fees and disbursements of the Bank’s and the Depositor’s counsel and accountants, (e) the qualification of the Underwritten Notes under state securities laws in accordance with Section 5(f) hereof, including filing fees and the fees and disbursements of counsel in connection therewith and in connection with the preparation of any blue sky survey (including the printing and delivery thereof to the Underwriters), (f) any fees charged by rating agencies for the rating (or consideration of the rating) of the Underwritten Notes, (g) the fees and expenses incurred with respect to any filing with, and review by, the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc., DTC or any similar organizations, (h) the fees and disbursements of the Indenture Trustee and its counsel, if any, (i) the fees and disbursements of U.S. Bank Trust National Association,, a national banking association, acting in its capacity as owner trustee (in such capacity, the “Owner Trustee”) under the Amended and Restated Trust Agreement, to be dated on or about August 23, 2023 (the “Trust Agreement”), between the Depositor and the Owner Trustee, and its counsel, and (j) the fees and expenses of the Asset Representations Reviewer and its counsel.

SECTION 9. Indemnification and Contribution. (a) The Depositor and the Bank will, jointly and severally, indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter, its directors, officers, employees, agents and affiliates, and each person, if any, who controls any Underwriter within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, from and against any losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including, without limitation, any reasonable legal or other expenses incurred by any Underwriter in connection with defending or investigating any such action or claim) to which they or any of them may become subject, under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in (x) the Time of Sale Information, the Prospectus or any amendment, exhibit or supplement thereto, or the Intex CDI File, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading, (y) the Registration Statement or any amendment, exhibit or

supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading or (z) any Form ABS-15G (taken as a whole with the Time of Sale Information) or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein, in the light of the circumstances in which they were made, a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, not misleading; provided, however, that, in the case of the Time of Sale Information, the Prospectus and the Intex CDI File, neither the Depositor nor the Bank will be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon (a) an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement in, or omission or alleged omission from, any of such documents in reliance upon and in conformity with the Underwriter Information (as defined below) or (b) any untrue statement in or omission from any Underwriter Free Writing Prospectus (defined below) not in reliance upon and in conformity with (A) any written information furnished to the related Underwriter by the Depositor or the Bank expressly for use therein, (B) information accurately extracted from the Time of Sale Information or Prospectus, which information was not corrected by information subsequently provided by the Depositor or the Bank to the related Underwriter prior to the time of use of such Underwriter Free Writing Prospectus (defined below) or (C) Issuer Information (as defined below) (except for information regarding the status of the subscriptions for the Underwritten Notes). This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability that each of the Depositor and the Bank may otherwise have.

(b)

Each Underwriter, severally and not jointly, agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Depositor, the Bank, their respective directors, officers (including such directors and officers who signed the Registration Statement), employees, agents and affiliates, and each person, if any, who controls such Persons within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (including, without limitation, any reasonable legal or other expenses incurred by any of them in connection with defending or investigating any such action or claim) to which any of them may become subject, under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Registration Statement, Time of Sale Information, the Prospectus or any amendment, exhibit or supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or the alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with the Underwriter Information (as defined below), and (ii) the failure on the part of any Underwriter to deliver the Time of Sale Information prior to the Time of Sale to any investor with whom such Underwriter entered into a Contract of Sale at such Time of Sale. As used herein, the term “Underwriter Information” means the third and fourth paragraphs (including the table under such third paragraph), the second sentence in the fifth paragraph, and the first sentence in the sixteenth paragraph, in each case under the heading “Underwriting” in the Prospectus. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability that each Underwriter may otherwise have.

(c)

Each Underwriter, severally and not jointly, will indemnify and hold harmless the Depositor, the Bank, their respective directors, officers (including such directors and officers who signed the Registration Statement), employees, agents and affiliates, and each person, if any, who controls such Persons within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act and the respective officers, directors and employees of each such person, against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (including, without limitation, any reasonable legal or other expenses incurred by any of them in connection with defending or investigating any such action or claim) to which the Depositor or the Bank may become subject, under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon, (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in any Underwriter Free Writing Prospectus (defined below), or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (and together with the Time of Sale Information) not misleading and (ii) any statement contained in any Underwriter Free Writing Prospectus (defined below) that conflicts with the information then contained in the Registration Statement or any prospectus that is a part thereof; provided, however, that with respect to clauses (i) and (ii) above, no Underwriter will be liable to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon any statement in or omission from any Underwriter Free Writing Prospectus (defined below) in reliance upon and in conformity with (A) any written information furnished to the related Underwriter by the Depositor or the Bank expressly for use therein, (B) information accurately extracted from the Time of Sale Information or Prospectus, which information was not corrected by information subsequently provided by the Depositor or the Bank to the related Underwriter prior to the time of use of such Underwriter Free Writing Prospectus (defined below) or (C) Issuer Information (as defined below) (except for information regarding the status of the subscriptions for the Underwritten Notes). This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability that each Underwriter may otherwise have.

(d)

In case any proceeding (including any governmental investigation) shall be instituted involving any person in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to either subsections (a), (b) or (c) above, such person (the “indemnified party”) promptly shall notify the person against whom such indemnity may be sought (the “indemnifying party”) in writing and the indemnifying party, upon request of the indemnified party, shall retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party and any others the indemnifying party may designate in such proceedings and shall pay the fees and disbursements of such counsel related to such proceeding; provided, however, that the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have under this Section 9 or otherwise than under this Section 9. In any such proceeding, any indemnified party shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified party unless: (i) the indemnifying party and the indemnified party agree on the retention of such counsel at the indemnifying party’s expense, (ii) the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party within a reasonable time after notice of commencement of the action or (iii) the named parties to any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the indemnifying party

and the indemnified party and representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them. It is understood that the indemnifying party shall not, in respect of the legal expenses of any indemnified party in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one counsel (in addition to any local counsel) for all such indemnified parties and that all such fees and expenses shall be reimbursed promptly as they are incurred. Such counsel shall be designated in writing by the Depositor, in the case of parties indemnified pursuant to subsection (a), above, and by the Representative, in the case of parties indemnified pursuant to subsections (b) and (c), above. The indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, but if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify the indemnified party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party, unless such settlement (i) includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding and (ii) does not include any statement as to or any admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of such indemnified party.

(e)

If the indemnification provided for in this Section 9 is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under subsection (a), (b) or (c), above, then each indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party thereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to in subsection (a), (b) or (c), above: (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Depositor, the Bank, the Issuer and their affiliates on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other from the offering of the Underwritten Notes, or (ii) if the allocation provided by the preceding clause (i) is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in the preceding clause (i) but also the relative fault of the Depositor, the Bank, the Issuer and their affiliates on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Depositor, the Bank, the Issuer and their affiliates on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other in connection with the offering of the Underwritten Notes shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses other than underwriting discounts and commissions received by the Underwriters) received by the Depositor, the Bank, the Issuer and their affiliates bear to the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by the Underwriters. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Depositor, the Bank, the Issuer or their affiliates or by any Underwriter, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement or omission. The Underwriters’ respective obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 9 are several in proportion to the respective principal amounts of Underwritten Notes they have purchased hereunder, and not joint.

(f)

The parties hereto agree that it would not be just or equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 9 were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Underwriters were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in the preceding paragraph. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages and liabilities referred to in the preceding paragraph shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Section 9, no Underwriter (except as may be provided in the agreement among Underwriters relating to the offering of the Underwritten Notes) shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by such Underwriter exceed the amount of any damages that such Underwriter otherwise has been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution or indemnity from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The remedies provided for in this Section 9 are not exclusive and shall not limit any rights or remedies that otherwise may be available to any indemnified party at law or in equity.

SECTION 10. Defaults by an Underwriter. If any one or more Underwriter(s) fail(s) to purchase and pay for any of the Underwritten Notes agreed to be purchased by such Underwriter(s) hereunder, and such failure constitutes a default in the performance of its or their obligations under this Agreement, the remaining Underwriter(s) shall be obligated severally to take up and pay for (in the respective proportions that the amount of Underwritten Notes set forth opposite their names in Schedule I bears to the aggregate amount of Underwritten Notes set forth opposite the names of all the remaining Underwriter(s)) the Underwritten Notes that the defaulting Underwriter(s) agreed but failed to purchase; provided, however, that if the aggregate amount of Underwritten Notes that the defaulting Underwriter(s) agreed but failed to purchase exceeds 10% of the aggregate principal amount of Underwritten Notes, the remaining Underwriter(s) shall have the right to purchase all, but shall not be under any obligation to purchase any, of the Underwritten Notes, and if such nondefaulting Underwriter(s) do not purchase all the Underwritten Notes, this Agreement will terminate without liability to any nondefaulting Underwriter(s). In the event of a default by any Underwriter as set forth in this Section 10, the Closing Date shall be postponed for such period, not exceeding seven days, as the remaining Underwriter(s) shall determine in order that the required changes in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus or in any other documents or arrangements may be effected. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall relieve any defaulting Underwriter(s) of any liability to the Depositor, the Bank, their affiliates or any nondefaulting Underwriter(s) for damages occasioned by its default hereunder.

SECTION 11. Offering Communications. Other than the Preliminary Prospectus, the Ratings Free Writing Prospectus and the Prospectus, each Underwriter severally represents, warrants and agrees with the Bank and the Depositor that it has not made, used, prepared, authorized, approved or referred to and will not prepare, make, use, authorize, approve or refer to
